Job Description
Practice Somewhere You Want to Build a Life
There are physical therapy jobs, and then there are physical therapy careers in places people actually want to live. Boulder needs no sell — the Flatirons, Pearl Street, Chautauqua Park, world-class road cycling, 300 days of sunshine, Rocky Mountain National Park 45 minutes away. You already know what it means.
And with clinics in Westminster, Golden, and Superior, North Boulder PT gives you Boulder County lifestyle access from wherever makes sense for you. Live where you want. Work where you've always wanted to be.
What you'll find inside the practice matches what's outside it. Four clinic locations across one of Colorado's premier counties means a visible path for ambitious clinicians — clinical leadership and site management opportunities within a well-established private practice, without leaving the region you chose.
And North Boulder PT's commitment to evidence-based care comes with something rare in this market: unlimited continuing education, no budget cap, no approval process. Larger health systems have capped it. We've made it limitless.
